Allow unmanaged generic structs #31148

RikkiGibson · 2018-11-13T21:43:45Z

Remaining:

Handle expanding cycles when performing closure to check if a constructed type is unmanaged

struct A<T> { B<A<A<T>>> b; }
struct B<T> { T t; }

I think, based on https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/pull/31148/files#diff-fbc5c7a6fe5b3b3c4b6b44d58fb585a1R3269, it should read something like:

type parameters are managed unless an 'unmanaged' constraint is present or the type can be statically determined to be 'unmanaged'

Some additional comment might be warranted. I think the language you suggest conflates type parameters with type arguments though.

Consider the following example

struct MyStruct<T> { T field; unsafe void Foo(MyStruct<T>* ptr) {} } static class MyClass { static unsafe void Bar(MyStruct<int>* ptr) {} }

MyStruct.Foo is invalid because the type parameter T must have an unmanaged constraint to be considered unmanaged. MyClass.Bar is fine, though, because the type instantiation MyStruct<int> can be statically determined to be unmanaged.

Right, that's basically what I meant, I just didn't word it as well as you 😄

… a type is managed

RikkiGibson · 2018-11-15T00:52:55Z

Added an ad-hoc attempt to prevent exploding the stack for an expanding generic argument in 8e5c646. I'm not sure if it's a correct solution--will revisit as I improve my grasp on the problem.

There may be tests failing because of this right now.

RikkiGibson · 2018-11-15T21:46:05Z

Found a diagnostics nit. When a usage of a type is not valid because it's inaccessible we also consider the type to be managed because its kind is ErrorType instead of Struct.

unsafe class C<U>
{
    // error CS0122: 'S<U>.R' is inaccessible due to its protection level
    // error CS0208: Cannot take the address of, get the size of, or declare a pointer to a managed type ('S<U>.R')
    S<U>.R* f3;
}

struct S<T>
{
    struct R { }
}

Does this matter?

RikkiGibson · 2018-11-16T00:58:00Z

Seeing strange results in a few tests.

For instance in SemanticErrorTests.CS0208ERR_ManagedAddr02 a subset of the diff is

      -->                 Diagnostic(ErrorCode.ERR_ManagedAddr, "object*").WithArguments("object")
      ++>                 Diagnostic(ErrorCode.ERR_ManagedAddr, "object*").WithArguments("object")

Hard to tell what difference actually exists between these diagnostics.

Consider testing IsManagedType in various symbols would be useful, even though it was not yet made a public API.

Addressed some of the easier feedback. Will look into testing IsManagedType.

Originally created when everything was VSTS. This gets us back inline with the new branding.

RikkiGibson · 2018-12-06T01:50:18Z

A few emit tests are failing now. Will look into why soon.

agocke

LGTM. I think we need a few follow-on tests in a later PR:

Test for ref structs
Test the IsManagedType API as suggested by Julien
Test moveability (exiting rules should be sufficient)
Have at least one test spit some IL to look at and have a few tests run with "expected output" to make sure the CLR can handle the code.

jaredpar · 2018-12-06T20:52:28Z

@RikkiGibson

is a second sign off needed? or just when the feature is PRed to preview 2?

Yes. The only times a second sign off is not needed:

Merge only PR to a feature branch: this needs zero sign offs.
Merge only PR to master branch: one sign off .
Test change only: need one sign off.

It is already on our myget feed. It will appear on NuGet, in preview mode, around the time VS 2019 goes RTM.
